Black Dynamite – Review

Jennifer’s Body – Review

Beware! The Blob – Review

This Ain’t Star Trek XXX – Review
My mind to your, uh... The USS Enterprise was the Love Boat of the 23rd century. Unfortunately, the crew always set their “phasers” to stun. Hustler however takes no prisoners with This Ain’t Star Trek XXX, a parody of the classic e...
Tron Reboot
No it’s not the highly anticipated sequel unveiled at Comic-Con this weekend. It’s a hilarious new web series by Ben Hansford about an older but not necessarily wiser Tron. The episodes, which average about a minute in length, reveal wha...
Green Lantern: First Flight – Review
Grrr... I'm so mad you can see my eyes, my sexy blue eyes. Green Lantern’s light isn’t shining as nearly bright as it used to in this new take on a classic origin. It’s bad enough that they cut out the death of Hal Jordan’...

Michael Bay Transforms Autobots into Stereotypes
After months of speculation on who the “Fallen” was in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, who would’ve guessed that it’d be two slapstick sidekicks that would spark the real debate. Skids and Mudflap are Transformers that sp...
Blood: The Last Vampire – Review
3 words: Vampire Japanese Schoolgirl! Although technically she’s not really a schoolgirl. Her name’s Saya, and she’s gone undercover to hunt her own kind. And these aren’t your typical bloodsuckers, they’re a lot uglier ...
Return of the Ewok – Review
A long time ago at a movie studio far, far away a promo was made for Return of the Jedi called Return of the Ewok, but fearing another debacle like The Star Wars Holiday Special it was frozen in carbonite never to be seen again… That is until a...
Woman in a Box 2 - Review
A movie about a box within a box? It blows my mind (among other things) just thinking about it! I know what you’re thinking: ‘Do I need to see Woman in Box 1 first?’ Heck, you don’t need to even see this one, that is unless yo...
One-Eyed Monster - Review

Star Trek: Countdown - Review

Has Sarah Connor been Terminated?
If you didn’t see the season finale of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, you weren’t the only one. Even with a special preview of Terminator Salvation, the only show it managed to beat out in the ratings was a repeat of Everybody H...

Dead Snow - Review
This Easter it won’t be Jesus that comes back from the dead. But these aren’t your typical zombies, they’re nazi zombies. And they don’t want brains… well they do, but that’s just a means to an end. What they reall...
Tales of the Black Freighter - Review
One of many things absent from the recent movie adaptation of Watchmen was the fictional comic Tales of the Black Freighter. This story within a story mirrored events (as they happened) in Watchmen so a standalone direct-to-DVD movie kinda defeats th...
Dragonball: Evolution - Review
A live-action adaptation of Dragon Ball? I knew this was gonna be bad. The only question was how bad. Well I got my answer last night, and it’s a disaster. In fairness I saw the shorter Asian version, but I really don’t think an extra 15 ...
